This was the first movie I saw on bluray, and I was like 'wow bluray sucks why would I want to see people's pores that clearly' Also because of how the earth is tilted there are even longer nights on earth towards the poles. Like northern Norway gets 76 sunless days in the winter (and midnight suns in the summer), and if you go to the North Pole you get nighttime from early October until early March!

Loving the technical talk, about focal length, angles and stuff. Haven't seen this movie, but makes sense you'd select a longer lens to compress the background for a more claustrophobic effect. On a related note, have you guys watched Glass Onion yet? As a portrait photographer, I immediately noticed how deep the depth of field was most of the shots (scene of about 5 of them in a row going against the camera, and all of them in focus), and I figured that was very much on purpose because it's a whodunit, and Johnson wants us to explore all of the screen for clues. Also noticeable when there's a flashlight with a starburst effect, which is an artifact of a narrow camera aperture.

There is absolutely a method to the madness of using multiple focus spots in shots for whodunnits! So great. I might steal this for a murder mystery DPT, it's a great trick and a lot of people don't necessarily think about how shooting wide is the bread and butter of those crucial moments where the director wants you to think "it could be them, or them, or them..."!

Gonna clip Adam saying “Miners can be hot” and get him in all kinds of trouble
